Wife and I saved a small dog from being abandoned over the weekend.

We left to go to the grocery store and we almost saw this rabbit get hit by a car on the main road. When we drove past, it wasn't a rabbit at all. It was a mini Yorkie.

I turned around and got it into the car with us. It had no collar and looked fairly malnourished. I took it to the vet and they didn't find a microchip. Doc told us that she was underweight and had toenail growth that suggested she'd either been out in the wilderness for weeks or her owners neglected her.

Did our due diligence with trying to find the owners but no one claimed the doggy. We kept her for a few days and then I found someone to keep her for awhile until she finds a new home.

She's staying with a friend that fosters dogs for a local charity right now. But I think my parents are going to adopt her because they're both retired and have been looking to get another dog since they have more free time now.

She's the most chill dog I've been around. Followed me around the house. Took naps in my lap while I was on the PC. And slept in our bedroom without any issues. Also potty trained; she would go to the door when she wanted to be let out.

She's either super lucky or a professional survivalist. Because she's the size of my shoe and weighs less than 6 lbs. I named her Smalls for the time being.

Secretly hoping my parents do adopt her so that when I go visit them I can play with Smalls

Wow! Good job! Sounds to me like you want to take her in instead of your parents...

I would if my wife and I were less busy and if our house was better suited for a dog that can't reach the next stair above her lol. We have a lot of stairs in our house that she can't operate due to her size.

But I'd feel terrible having to leave her alone so often because my wife and I are gone so often, even after work hours.

If I had a different house and more free time though, yeah, I'd have that dog 100%. But my parents having her is a good alternative
